Context - Flight School is Postman’s structured onboarding experience for new go-to-market hires. As competitive pressure from Bruno increased, new reps needed a clear, repeatable framework to differentiate Postman beyond feature comparisons and handle objections early in their tenure.
Audience - AEs and SDRs
Design approach - New hires understood product features but lacked structured practice in translating competitive insights into confident, real-time customer conversations. Competitive conversations were inconsistent and often reactive.
Design decisions
Included timed partner activities and Kahoot scavenger hunt to reinforce retrieval and application
Focused on repeatable frameworks reps can use immediately in live calls
Context - Delivered as part of Postman’s SKO, this session equipped reps to elevate discovery conversations beyond technical validation and connect Postman use cases to broader business transformation initiatives.
Audience - Enterprise AEs
Enablement challenge - While reps were confident in product workflows, discovery conversations often remained feature-focused. Teams needed a structured approach to uncover initiative-level drivers, economic impact, and executive priorities early in the sales cycle.
Enablement strategy
Operationalized the D.I.Q. framework (Data → Insight → Question) for consultative positioning
Guided teams through real-account scenario planning and questioning sequences
Included timed partner practice and competitive-response drills to build call readiness
Context - Delivered as part of Postman’s SKO to align enterprise teams on a repeatable multithreading motion ahead of the new fiscal year.
Audience - Corporate AEs

Facilitated live deal-mapping exercises using active pipeline accounts
Embedded timed partner simulations to practice cross-persona value articulation
